Patent number: 9620971Abstract: A battery charger is provided on which power conversion components for converting commercial power to direct current (DC) power are mounted. The power conversion components include a power breaker for switching input alternate current (AC) power on/off, a power conversion circuit for converting the input AC power to a predetermined AC power, a voltage conversion circuit for converting the predetermined AC power to a predetermined voltage, and a rectifier circuit for converting the AC power that has been converted to the predetermined voltage to DC power. The power conversion components are mounted on a core frame, and an outer housing is mounted to the core frame in a manner so as to cover the core frame. The power breaker, the power conversion circuit, the rectifier circuit, and the voltage conversion circuit are mounted in this order to the core frame.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2012Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Mitsuharu Hamada, Tatsuharu Taima, Hideyuki Yanase, Yoshiaki Yano

Patent number: 5854368Abstract: A polyester represented by the following general formula (I) and a copolymer which comprises two structural units represented by the following general formulae (I') and (II). ##STR1## and a coating material for use in large intestine-selective drug release pharmaceutical preparations, which contains the above polyester and/or copolymer. The polyester and copolymer of the present invention contain a saccharide residue which is hydrolyzed and/or assimilated specifically in the large intestine, drugs contained in solid oral pharmaceutical administration pharmaceutical preparations coated with the coating material of the present invention are not decomposed or absorbed by digestive organs other than the large intestine, but instead are released selectively and therefore in a high concentration in the large intestine.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 1996Date of Patent: December 29, 1998Assignee: Kanegafuchi Kagaku Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Koji Iritani, Tetsuya Kawasaki, Nobutaka Tani, Shigeki Masuda, Yoshiaki Yano

Patent number: 5298246Abstract: The present invention is directed to a stable pharmaceutical composition wherein the absorbability of a lipophilic drug which is insoluble or practically insoluble in water or another drug such as a bioactive peptide in oral administration has been improved to such extent that a high level of blood concentration can be retained, and to a method for producing such a stable pharmaceutical composition. The pharmaceutical composition of the present invention offers improvements in the absorbability, for example, a high level of blood concentration can be retained for a long time in oral administration because it is highly resistant to lipase. Also, the pharmaceutical composition is highly safe because the emulsifier used is derived from mammalian milk.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 1991Date of Patent: March 29, 1994Assignee: Kanegafuchi Kagaku Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yoshiaki Yano, Shigeki Masuda, Takayoshi Hidaka
